Crossing the Connecticut at Albany

If were boy again, and knew
what / know now, would not be quite
so positive in my opinions as / used TO
be. Boys generally think that they are
very certain about many things. A
boy of fifteen is a great deal more sure
of what he thinks he knows than is a
man of fifty. You ask the boy ques-
tion and he viii answer right of. up
and down; he knows all about it. Ask
man of large experience and ripe wis
dom the same question, and he will
say, "Well, there is much to be said
about it. / am inclined, on the whole,
to think so and so, but other intelli-
gent men think otherwise.
When | was eight years old / travel
ed from Central Massachusetts, to West
ern New York, crossing the river at
Albany, and going by canal from
Schenectady to Syracuse. On the cam
al-boat a kindly gentleman was talking
to me one day, and l mentioned the
fact that had crossed the Connecticut
River at Albany. How / got in my
head that it was the Connecticut River
] do not know, for / knew my geog-
raphy very well then; but in some un-
accountable way had it fixed in my
mind that the river at Albany was the
Connecticut, and l called it so.
.'Why," said the gentleman, ''that is
the Hudson River. "fsi
''Oh, no, sir!' replied, politely, but
firmly. You're mistaken. That is
the Connecticut River
The gentleman smiled and said no
more. / was not much in the habit, /
think, of contradicting my elders; but
in this matter was perfectly sure that
l was right, and so thought it my
duty to correct the gentleman's geog-
raphy. felt rather sorry for him that
he should be so ignorant. One day,
after l reached home. / was looking
over my route on the map, and 10!
there was Albany standing on the Hud-
son River, hundred miles from the
Connecticut. Then did not feel half
SO sorry for the gentleman's ignorance
as did for my own. never told any
body that story till wrote it down on
these pages the other day: but l have
thought of it thousand times, and al
ways with a blush for my boldness. Nor
was it the only time that was perfectly
sure of things that really were not so.
1t is hard for boy to learn that he
may be mistaken; but; unless he is a
fool, he learns 1t after while. The
sooner he finds it out, the better for
him. Washington GLADDEN. in 81. Nich-

HuxleS,s Views Of spirituallsm.

Unless and until anybody will re-
solve all these doubts and difficulties
for me, think / have right to hold
aloof from materialism. AS to spirit
ualism, it lands me in even greater
difficulties when | want to get change
for its notes-of-hand in the solid coin
of reality. For the assumed substan-
tial entity, spirit, which is supposed to
underlie the phenomena of conscious
ness, as matter underlies those of
physical nature, leaves not even
geometrical ghost when these phenom-
ma are distracted, And, even if we
suppose the existence of such an entity
apart from qualities-that is to say a
bare existence-for mind, how does
anybody know that it differs from that
other entity, apart from qualities,
which is the supposed substratun of
matter? Spiritualism is, after all, little
better than materialism turned upside
down. And if | try to think of the
esprit which man, by this hypoth-
esis, carries about under his hat, as
something devoid of relation to space,
and as something indivisible even in
thought, while it is, at the same time,
supposed to be in that place and to be
possessed of half dozen different fa-
culties, ] confess get quite lost.
As have said elsewhere, if / were
forced to choose between materialism
and idealism, should elect for the
latter; and / certainly would have
nothing to do with the effete mytholo-
gy of spiritualism. But l am not
aware that am under any compul-
sion to choose either the one or the
other. have always entertained a
strong suspicion that the sage who
maintained that man is the measure of
the universe was sadly in the wrong,
and age and experience have not
weakened that conviction. In follow
ing these lines of speculation | am re-
minded of the quarterback walks Of
my youth. In taking that form of
exercise, you may perambulate through
all points of the compass with perfect
safety. so long as you keep within cer-
tain limits: forget those limits, in
your ardor. and mere smothering and
spluttering. If not worse, await you. /
stick by the deck. and throw life
buoy now and then to the struggling
folk who hare gone overheard; and
al I get for my humanity is the abuse
Of all whenever they leave of abusing
one another. -Prof. Hurley, in POpbiar

A man by the name of White, who
takes care of the palatial residence OF
an Englishman, formerly identified
with the Mormon church, but now liv-
ing in London. believes that Brigham
Young is alive and as lively as ever.
and that he and the prophet are sleop-
ing under the same roof This Is the
strange story which White. who has
been Mormon himself, tells:
1.-Two months ago there arrived al
the mansion an old gentleman bearing
letters from my master in London. the
purport of which was to obey his every
wish and to keep his presence secret
to all except those to whom he saw fit
to reveal himself. Within week per.
sons began to arrive at the house In
twos and threes. They were from Salt
Lake City, and held long whispered
consultations with my mysterious
guest. AT first / did not care who or
what he was, until little by little / gath
cred from stray remarks that he was
person of note, and soon after the
truth burst upon me that he is none
other than Brigham Young, the great
prophet of our church, who is to APP
parently be resurrected from the dead
and preach to the people of Zion as one
having returned from the grave to tell
what lies beyond. That his death and
burial were a deception will soon be
seen by the whole world, while thous-
ands of his ignorant believers bow at
his feet, and he dictates to them their
ways of life. Ny guests visitors are
men of high standing, as their appear
ance indicates, and it was in conver-
sation with one Of them who supposed
from the way / talked that knew all.
that my suspicious were verified, only
my informant said Brigham Young
had risen from his grave = Salt Lake
City and was instructing his disciples
here in order to prepare the people for
the great event of his coming. My on
ly reason for telling these facts is thatI
am an old man with but little to gain
in this world, and do not want to see
people deluded as | have been"
The old man told the story with
sincerity that warranted further inves-
tigation, and a merchant who formerly
did business in Salt Lake City drove
out to the mansion this afternoon and
raped at the door. Receiving no re-
sponse he started around the house to
apply at the rear, and through bay
window he saw the form and features
of an old man, who sat enjoying sum
bath. As he was unaware of his pres
ence the merchant approached to with
in few feet of the window, scanning
the old mans face closely, and, step
ping back, Immediately pronounced the
man to be Brigham Young, whose
marked features he had often studied
in Salt Lake City, which once seen, he
says, can never be forgotten. For
few moments the figure sat silently.
then raised his hand Gin wcaried way
to his brow, revealing scar about tho
wrist that still further established his
identity.
1t is well-known fact that the eld-
ers of the Mormon church throughout
Utah and Arizona have of late been
preaching the return Of the prophet

Strange Ways Of the Fashionable.

An odious custom is intruding itself
into London society, says a corre-
spondent of the London Post. 1t is
parties for roulette, or rouge ct zoir.
Ladies and gentlemen stand around
the green table for hours and play for
money-not for very large, but still
for sufficient amounts. I have tried
one of these evenings, and they arc a
kind of entertainment the most hope
lessly dull and stupid. 1t is not pleas
ant either to see the fire of excitement
in the eye of young girls. and to hear
the delight with which they speak Of
their winnings. Finally the dude has
acquired another accomplishment. It
is. as you know, quite a thing TO play
the banjo, but a gentleman reaches the
highest peak Of accomplishment II he
is able to whistle an accompaniment
There are even teachers who make a
good income BY showing how it il
done. and Isbelieve the lesson IS not
easily learned. 1t requires a certain
action Of the muscle Of the under lip,
such as has to be acquired BY cornet-
players. Strange are the ways Of the
fashionable.
